Update on the hottest weekend of the year


On Saturday, we experienced the 4th hottest day in the history of Phoenix at 119 degrees recorded at Sky Harbor Airport, although it might have been hotter in other areas of the valley.  It was gross!  And kind of feels like your face is burning off.  To celebrate the hottest day we've ever experienced, the air conditioner in our car went out and now we get to replace the compressor.  How appropriate!  :)

Somehow on Saturday morning, I ran 7 miles outside - I started at 5:45am and thought I'd end up at the gym after 4 miles, but it was closed, so I ran another 3 and it was miserable.  Thankfully the clouds were covering the sun, so it wasn't as bad as it could have been.  While I worked the rest of the morning, Brandon took the kids to the park, then swimming and later took them to a movie (during Kendall's nap).  At the movie, Andrew & Rachel got to eat a little lot too much junk food, and came home complaining their tummy's felt sick.  Apparently Rachel ate her whole box of Starburst in the first 10 minutes before Brandon even realized it, they were gone.  Later that night, Rachel threw up from eating too much junk food.  I can honestly say that is a first for us!!  Maybe the heat had something to do with it - yes, let's blame the heat.
